Stayed overnight at this park. Several long term residence but have nice pull thru's of short term guests. We found the staff nice and helpful. The spaces are spaced nice, and long. The interior roads are good except for the speed bumps. We would stay again when in the area. - JDR

Pros: Convenient to I10, Nice location outside of the city, Excellent staff and service, level sites, good utilities. Cons: Gravel sites, wifi never worked, LOTS of road noise, lots of full-timers, low appeal to overall site. We stayed for a few nights while visiting family and it was fine, but we would only stay here again if there were no other options or for a single overnight stay. - PBW

This park is in a very rough part of town along side the I-10 and next to a very low cost run down hotel. Check was quick and helpful with no escort to site. Roads and sites are sharp rocks with 1/2 mph speed bumps which makes leveling not easy, I-10 runs along side so lots of noise all night. FHU's worked well no problems. Beautiful pond to walk around but no dog park, leash laws are strictly enforced with $5 fine and the city of Brookshire has $500 leash fine. Large rock roads make walking difficult, I will not return. - Tahoetom

We usually camp Sunday-Wednesday to avoid crowds -- so we basically had the park to ourselves. This park is very nice providing full hookup, spacious, pull-though campsites. The trails and campground were well maintained with level, concrete sites. Trails were very nice, shaded and had crushed-granite paths for easily biking. We really enjoyed camping at this park -- we saw deer every evening grazing through the campground. Site 13 was next to the park host, which looks like an open field on the reservation map-- a little deceiving but not a problem. - fromtexastoo

This is a very nice state park with spacious, level pull-through sites. We only stayed one night, so didn't have time to explore the hiking trails and other activities. There is one loop with 40 full hook-up sites and three other loops for tent campers or people who don't need hook-ups. Our site was quite roomy with a large open, mowed area next to it. Everything was clean and worked. Definitely recommended. - Thriller

We have camped here before, and we plan to return. For this stay, we were there two nights. One of our children had to have minor surgery at a hospital in Katy. We chose to camp at SFA because our own camper is more comfortable to us than a hotel room, and it is less expensive. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't the best during our stay. Thunderstorms, and ample lightning, kept us in much of the time. That's not the park's fault. When we were able to venture out, we enjoyed it. The campsites are clean and nice. There is ample room. There is an abundance of wildlife. We like having full hook-ups. Cell service is good for when you're stuck indoors. Although we didn't venture out to the museum on this trip, we do like the museum that is nearby. Park rangers are helpful. Park host was active around the loop and was friendly and helpful. There are stores in nearby Sealy. If you get rained in, there is plenty to do in Katy. - Amanda L

The Katy Elks Lodge is located 1/4 mile north of I-10, so access is easy, although the turn from Katy Fort Bend Rd at the Lodge entrance is a little tight. There are four sites available at the rear of the lodge. 30/50E&W is available at the rear of the sites. On the day I arrived three of the sites were in use by rigs that appeared to have been there for a while. The lodge opens at 5pm and reservations are not taken, so a call ahead is advised. There is space available for dry camping should the sites be full. The lodge is very active and friendly. They are planning to add more sites with sewer hookups in the future. We stayed one night. - 15243

Pronounced koo'-shetty. RV Park is located 6 miles outside Bellville, 5 miles out on Coushatte Rd and one mile on Nelius road. There is no playground or pool. No store in the office, but town is 6 miles away. There is a Brookshire Brothers supermarket in town that has pretty much anything you may have forgotten to bring in regard to groceries. We had a pull-through with full hook ups so we didn't have to unhook the trailer. There are several pull throughs by the office for short stays. They have oak trees and squirrels. They have gravel and sand driveways and gravel and grass pads with grass between the sites. They do not have have picnic tables, BBQ grills or fire rings. They have drop-in sewer connections. Water pressure was adequate. Electrical is 30 and 50 amps. There are a lot of long-term campers workers camping here. However; with over 400 sites, you can choose your spot and neighbors.There is no cable TV; only OTA channels are available, 110 digital channels and sub- channels with about half in Spanish. There is free, passworded WiFi that is pretty much worthless at times. You can connect to the local router, but it can't get out to the internet except every now and then. Verizon Wireless was 5 out of 5 bars; ATT wireless 2 out of 5 bars. You can pick up about 36 FM radio stations and about 20 AM radio stations depending on your radio. There are two trash dumpsters by the office and in other places around the park. There is no trash pick up; you walk it up yourself. There were flies and mosquitoes after 2 29-degree nights in November. - RVTravelerToo

Great showers, very large-used them when I left. Stayed part of March and April '18-one month total. Awesome people run this place. They take care of the place and don't pester you..I loved it! Hassle free pricing WITH ELECTRICITY, simple. Propane on site-great price -same as COSTCO. Great location-far enough away from I-10 and rail roads - quiet, peaceful. Love the trees, had my choice of where I wanted to park-once I parked then I checked in. No hassles, no funny looks, no WTF are you doing-you're in my park-why didn't you check in first..just good a ole Welcome and once you get settled we're here for you! Grass parking, some spaces had trees and some without them. If you have satellite choose wisely. Larger rigs keep to near the office/bathrooms/meeting area...go around the lake-veer left of office THEN turn right-either right at the office or go past the grill/smoker at the meeting hall turn right. Use your common sense-if they had a map THERE'D be one. They easily have 450+ spaces. Just show up and stop whining about a map. Pay VERY CLOSE attention on how to get there-there's a load restricted bridge. Details are SPECIFIC and CLEAR on their website-The route keeps you on hardtop roads to the park. IF HOWEVER you are on gravel road-with a RV hooked to your rig you are on a road with a load restricted bridge. I suggest you stop, back up, pull your head out and LOOK at their website, then get to the right road to the campsite. Cars,trucks,mc's are okay on the bridge esp if you like dirt roads-just not trailers/5ths/A's, B's or C's. Have fun and enjoy chillin' out and watching' the stars at night. Bring CASH or CHECK - NO CREDIT CARDS. Best rate is monthly or best yet 6+ Month Lease . They do have Military disc for daily rate. - iameric

Great place for a rally, not much reason to go there other than that unless your looking for a inexpensive place to hang out for awhile. Owners are very friendly. - Dave Krobath

Great park for kids, lots for them to do. With school being out it was very crowded, especially the weekends. Staff was great and very helpful. Some of the water slides were shut down during certain times of the day because of staffing shortage. Only one of the large slides were open at a time all week. The staff took turns opening one for a few hours then the other, which we didn't like. The lazy river was overrun with kids being very wild during the weekend, but it was fine during the week. Kids loved the train ride, golf cart parade and all the activities-so many we couldn't do them all. We got a premium site and it was large and had plenty of room. We would return to this park, kids had a great time. Summer weekends this park is packed. - mrkd

$83.00

The rate of $83.25 per night includes arm bands for three people and our campsite fee for a Sunday through Thursday stay. We stayed in site #90, a preferred pull-through. We liked our site. We found it to be a bit more spacious than others. It had a view of horseshoe lake and was still close to the pools. It was very close to the activity center, play ground, and one of the laundry rooms. My family members were in site #91, and people kept driving golf carts through their site since it was larger and on the end. I don't know if they thought it was a public access or were just being rude, but it made us concerned for the safety of our children so we blocked the path with our trucks. We would book our spot of #90 again, but will remember that #91 won't work for us. The restrooms needed to be cleaned more often, but they weren't horrible. You could tell they were cleaned regularly, but it is a campground with water features, so a shower or toilet area gets dirty after one or two people use them. Our kids loved the pools and activities, especially candy bar bingo. Our little one liked the playground and the Jellystone Express train. Older one liked the movies they play at night on the big screen outside. Employees are very nice and helpful, particularly the ones working in the ranger station store. They are great about enforcing their rules here, which we appreciate. It keeps the little ones safe if people are required to drive within speed limits and control their anger. This park is very family friendly. They do serve food at their food bar by the pool, but we brought our own. It saves money, and we prefer our familiar food anyway. You can spend a lot of extra money here if you want to, but you don't have to. We bought a t-shirt for each of the kids and some refrigerator magnets. Some people rent golf carts; we rode our bikes. Mosquitoes were not a problem. We plan to return, and we recommend it. - Amanda L

The park's water features are fairly nice and offer a variety of options for children from 2 - adult. However, we noted black algae growing in the entrance of the lazy river and the bathrooms were totally nasty. The camping/cabin facilities are awful. The roads are too narrow and bumpy, there is absolutely no signage instructing ways to enter or exit the park, the RV sites are mostly dirt and not maintained and all the sites are too closely spaced. They advertise that they accommodate big rigs, but the roads are almost too narrow for big rigs to navigate. When the park is fully occupied, there is no room on the roads for big rigs to move through the park. I am surprised they are allowed to associate themselves with Jellystone Parks. They fall well below the Jellystone Parks standard and are not worth the premium price they charge. - PBW

Reviews of Katy Lake RV Resort

We had a pull in facing the lake. They have pull thru sites, but none available. They have many long term tenants. convenient to I-10. In a neighborhood. Very quiet. We stayed one night. - JanMan

The park website states that they are closed on Sunday, so my low rating is based solely on the fact that they require you to drive down a 1/4 mile dead end alley with no turn around at the closed gate!! We wanted to stay at the GS 10/10/10 rated park, but it deserves a 0/0/0 due to the fact that there is no signage or notice prior to driving down this dead end alley with a 41’ coach pulling a 24’ trailer! Be advised that once you are at the closed office you are also at a closed gate with no turn around available! This is totally unacceptable for any RV “Resort” that claims they cater to big rigs or are big rig friendly. - Hogbikertim

This is one of the nicest RV parks that we have stayed at. The cost was reasonable and the people were nice. They have not one but two ice machines. The two ice machines may not seem like a big deal but I personally really appreciate free ice on demand. So far out of 40+ rv parks that we have stayed at in the last year, yes year, only 3 have had ice machines. RV parks if I stay at a motel 6 they have a ice machine, why is this so hard for rv parks to do???? Some of the other nice things are actual working WiFi that is equal to what you would get at home. Also you are allowed to wash your vehicles, my truck and trailer really needed it. I do not like using the wash services as they use a power washer that is very hard on your vehicles. Mondays they have a drawing for a free pizza. For more information check out their calendar. On Saturday mornings at 8:00am they have free donuts and coffee in the activity center, actually they always have free coffee. We were there during thunderstorms and felt that the chances of being flooded were rare. There were some sites that had water puddle in them mostly along the west side of the lake. Hopefully the resort will correct the drainage issues. We decided to barbeque using the barbeques next to the pool. After having trouble lighting either one I was finally able to get one lit but it was very slow to heat so I just gave up on it. While these are nice barbeques they need some maintenance done on them. I reported this to the office and they said they would have someone look it it. When we travel through this area again we will definitely stop in. If you are in the area you will not be disappointed. - FatDash

Very clean park, managers are helpful, big rig friendly, close to shopping, fuel, etc. Appears secure, has fishing lake, swimming pool, wide road access, concrete pads. It’s a little difficult to get into requiring careful planning as you negotiate the driveway off Clay Street. Once in, the roads are wide for easy maneuvers of coach and trailer. - Hogbikertim

Camped for a weekend with grandkids - really enjoyed fishing (caught several sun fish and bass using weiners for bait) and the recreation room. Super clean park and facilities. Very friendly and accommodating management staff! Very close to shopping and restaurants. - Rbabino

A little disappointing when you first arrive as the entrance and office is a self storage place. The gate to get in requires that you punch in a 10-12 character code. You have to get out of your vehicle and walk to the key pad.....not fun in the rain. If your are a long term or permanent resident (95% are) you get an electronic opener. Most of the sites are really short so you will extend onto the road but the saving grace is the roads are wide. Nice concrete roads and sites, good pool and rec area, nice staff, friendly residents and quiet. About 4 miles from the interstate and you need to watch for overhanging branches on your trip to the park. - Kbob

This is not a vacation campground. This is a "functional" RV park for those looking for long term stays. Mostly working folks or long term residents. Wifi, Power and water included in rates. Access to laundry facilities a plus. Great People. - MSSTEPMOM

Mostly permanent residents with some campers and sites in dirty condition. There are trees but some make entering site very hard. Not a good place for large rigs. Campground grounds are not well kept. Sites are very close and one side of campground is very hard to drive into to occupy site with no outlet sign and no turn around. - dagopapa

Most residents are long term. I called this campground by mistake because I wrote down their phone number instead of the one I intended to call. The manager stated that they do not take reservations, but then proceeded to take my information and let me know we would be expected. Access is good and our site was level. There is no disconnect for the 50A electrical outlet - I don't like connecting/disconnecting "hot". Previous reviewers indicated no shade, but some sites are partly shaded. Also, a previous reviewer indicated no big rig access. We had no trouble with a 40 ft. coach and many sites would accommodate any big rig. My only issue is that this is not a $35 per day park. - 2005-Fulltimers

The park roads are terrible, deep pot holes along the main entrance. People drive on the grass. Campers are allowed to have house furniture in the camp area and garbage on campers' sites. Overall run down. - Nenajean

Plain Jane isn't always bad. Park is off the highway enough for quiet. Easy pull through spaces on gravel. No dhade yet. Small trees. All hookups except cable but I got over a dozen channels with my power boosted antennae. Reasonable rules. Large laundry and rec hall. No ice machine. - TX Sr
